Thank you for your detailed description! Been a toolmaker all my career & would love to be a wood worker. One thing I never see on wood working channels is the use of measuring tools. Your use of the template in the beginning of your video made me say finally. So often I see someone turning a burl and never even try to make their process on the lathe more effective by first ruffing it out with a saw. Then the way you moved your center to a new position with the tail stock was telling of your experience on the lathe. You have earned my subscription before I finished watching the video. Thank you!

Nice looking bowl, Kent. Maybe we could have lunch sometime and you could bring one to show me. We have an oak limb/branch that fell from one of our oak that is about the size of what you cut that blank from (ours may even be a little bigger) and has been down for a couple of years ... wonder how dry it will be when I can cut some blanks from it. It sure must be nice to have those wood shaving critters in your shop. I noticed when you finished for the night and turned the lights out you had a nice pile of wood shavings under the lathe. When you turned the lights back on in the morning they were gone. I do wish I had a self-cleaning shop 🙂

I love that bowl, but would like to see it as it ages. Did you update this video, or could you? Did it change shape? Did the bark stay on? And what did you do with that center strip you cut out of the log? Could you use that slab as a cutting board or something? Anyway, lovely work and so thin.

@DancingFox6 Год назад

Your tips for new turners are helpful for older, pain limited turners. I can work only half hour at a time and not every day, but I don’t care for ‘store bought’ kiln dried blanks. Putting oil on end grain may indeed save me some warping and cracks. 👍 thanks Kent. And btw, would shellac work to slow drying? I’ve used it to prevent staining from ca glue when doing inlay and it seems to do a nice disappearing act with sanding.

@kevinbooth2063 Год назад

Sweet bowl Kent thank you for such a precise explanation on the oak bark. I have several red oak bowls cored and waiting to equalize.

Kent, I absolutely love your videos. The quality is second to none. I was wondering about sealing a goblet for liquid. Does the Tried & True product do that? Is there a special technique that I need to do so the liquid doesn’t stain the inside?

@Drirot 7 месяцев назад

It has been a while now since you turned this bowl. How did it turn out after it dried? A suggestion for a video or class video. It would be neat to see a green bowl like this from start through the drying stages and then when it is finally dry and finished.

I always pick up a new information from your videos. I did pick up on the possible need to sand the bottom to make it flat if the drying process makes it wobble.

Hi Kent, what a beauty! Thanks for your teachings and video. Most skills in wood turning I actually learned from you. I sometimes struggle when finishing natural edge bowls. After sanding to grid 400 and applying boiled linseed oil, some loose fibres seem to raise leaving the surface rough again. Resanding after the application of oil turned out to be a mess. Do you (or anyone else) have any suggestion on how to deal with this issue?

@TurnAWoodBowl Год назад

Be sure you’re only applying a very thin application of linseed oil. Let it dry and cure for a couple days and you should be able to sand without trouble. Also be sure you’re cutting in a supported grain direction - see video with that title. All the best to you and Happy Turning!

@user-hd2tx5zx2q 11 месяцев назад

@@TurnAWoodBowl Thanks! I very much appriciate your reply. I probably applied too much oil right after turning the green wood. Looking forward to give it another shot / turn soon. :) Cheers!

@executive Год назад

One thing about drying bowls really confuses me, Kent. In your videos and articles you talk about drying bowls slowly, because sudden changes can make them crack. You suggest putting them in bags with shaving, and storing them in cool, draft free areas, etc. But then you have a video about drying bowls faster by building a kiln with heat and vent holes, or sticking them in a microwave. I'm not sure how to reconcile those approaches. So, when should I speed dry my wet wood projects, and when should I slow dry them? (especially for twice-turning).

@markclark4154 Год назад

I think a kiln works a bit like a steam oven. The heat allows the wood to bend and shrink without cracking.

Very cool bowl. It has been 5 months how is it drying? Does it look like it is going to keep its bark. I have only tried to turn dry oak a few times and it was not the best experience even for spindle turning. I have not played around a lot with bowls but you and the Jim the epoxy guy at sprague wood turnings are sure making me want to give it a go.

@erictownsend4236 7 месяцев назад

Turn a Wood Bowl, very nice video! But where I live we have only Red Oak! I live in NH. I Love red oak, for my wood stove , and my wood stove only! Furniture lumber, Mission style, turning? NO!! Dislike VERY Much! But it is the highest BTU wood for the wood stove that I have available! I also have White Pine, some Cherry, Maple, Ash, Birch, mostly paper(white) some yellow, Beech, Poplar and sadly only a little Black Walnut. About 50 miles south of me, I have heard Hickory is available, have not looked into this. My favorites are Maple,(especially tiger/curly!) Birdseye for some projects. But I love mixing any Maple figured or not with Black Walnut! What a beautiful contrast! In my cellar woodworking shop, I can build/turn all day, while I stoke the stove as needed with oak! Just my opinion though! Keep turning and building with the wood you like or have available! Woodworkers/Turners stay true, pass down your skills if you can! The smell of fresh cut wood, the satisfaction of seeing the grain pop when applying the 1st coat of finish needs to be passed on!

@TurnAWoodBowl 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for writing and sharing, Eric! Yes, red oak does not have the same medullary grain structure as white oak and is usually more brittle. My experience is that red oak easily tears out, sometimes with big chunks. Keep up the good work and enjoy all those species! All the best to you and Happy Turning!

@johnowills8061 Год назад

Hi Kent I’m a amateur turner can you tell me what grade c m t wheel you use to sharpen your bowl gauges regards johno

Just a guess, but red oak might be more brittle because the pores are open whereas white oak pores are filled with tyloses. Enjoying the videos as always.

I wish that I did not have to come onto a RU-vid video to post this but I kind of feel like I am out of options. I have been sending emails for going on three weeks now to Kent’s posted email address to get my password restored so that I can get into the "Woodbowl Turning Start to Finish" eCourse. I purchased that course on Nov 28, 2020, but, life getting in the way with illnesses, a huge re-org at work, and my wife getting diagnosed with cancer and being hospitalized, I was never able to find the time to start the course. Life is slowly returning to normal (a new normal) so about a month ago I tried to log onto the course but my password was no longer recognized and the password reset function no longer recognized my email address. To this date and many emails later, it has been nothing but crickets. I went onto the course page and posted a very non-confrontation message asking if there was another email address or way that I could contact him to resolve my issue and I got the standard "Your message is awaiting review" (don't hold me to the actual verbiage). I kept checking back and realized that my message evidently didn't pass muster and was never posted so here I am now on RU-vid trying to get what should be a very easy issue resolved. BTW, in the time that I have been trying to contact Kent, I have received at least three emails from Kent’s website: “What Are Those Lines on My Bowl", "Free Gift of Wood Bowl Turning Language", and "AHBCs - They DIDN'T Teach in School" so evidently his automated system has no problem finding me but customer service (Kent) does.
